Cutting Bureaucratic Red Tape With A Flexible And Managed Soa

To make doing business easier in Denmark, the Danish Commerce and Companies Agency

(DCCA) needed to streamline their business registration processes, ease reporting procedures and improve service levels. At the same time, DCCA needed to meet annual budget reduction targets, manage growth and maintain quality. They also wanted to gain visibility over their many systems and projects without increasing their staff.

DCCA implemented a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) to manage, govern and communicate services and relationships. Using CentraSite and webMethods Tamino, they transformed their system silos into a modern SOA that supports open source and provides high-performance XML document management capabilities. Now DCCA can manage service and application lifecycles, promote service reuse, maintain quality and improve communication.

Benefits include:

Effective governance across their heterogeneous IT landscape and external partner interactions

Increased business agility and ability to respond to legislation changes

Achieved 90% reuse of functionality using SOA Governance

Almost 70% of all business registrations are now handled electronically

Realizing business flexibility with SOA

To gain transparency and control, DCCAs New Architecture was designed with a standard, services-based approach using an SOA infrastructure. In this way they could easily manage, govern and communicate available services and service-to-application relationships, and maximize their re-use potential.

Together with their trusted partners Capgemini, and Sirius IT, DCCA selected CentraSite combined with webMethods Tamino to transform their systems into a modern SOA with high-performance XML document management capabilities.

As Rasmus Knippel, architect on DCCAs SOA Governance Project and Capgemini Denmark consultant related, With DCCA we looked for a practical solution that could be implemented rather painlessly while still fulfilling the need to maintain a complete overview of the architecture and CentraSite was the right solution.

The New Architecture is a multi-year project that implements SOA step-by-step across DCCAs core applications. CentraSite and webMethods Tamino are integrated seamlessly in the open source-based environment along with JBoss components, JBoss Portal and the Mule ESB.

CentraSite for SOA Architecture Governance stores all their XML schemas, business rules, Web services and WSDL. And because CentraSite was implemented in the initial phase, DCCA has been able to take advantage of powerful governance capabilities, policy enforcement, rules management and service reuse right from the project start.
